There's a heat in the pavement
My mercury's raising
Don't know if it's love or if it's ovulation
When you're holding a hammer everything looks like a nail
The mist from the fountain is kissing my neck
The liquid crystal is in my grip
Anyone with a snake tongue I'll show em the chambers of my heart
Now I know you don't deal much in love and affection
But I really do think there could be a connection
I burn and I sing and I scheme and I dance
Some days I'm a woman some days I'm a man
I mighta been born again
I'm ready to feel like I don't have the answers
There's peace in the madness over our heads
Let it carry me up up up up up
Today I'll go to Canal Street they're piercing my ears
I'm making a wish when the needle goes in
Take an aura picture read it and tell me who I am
Show me who I am
Now I know you don't deal much in love and affection
But I really do think you could make an exception
It's a beautiful life so why play truant?
I jerk tears and they pay me to do it
I mighta been born again
I'm ready to feel like I don't have the answers
There's peace in the madness over our heads
Let it carry me up up up up up
Let it break me down 'til I'm just a breath
'Til I'm just a voice living in your head
It's a f**ked up world been to hell and back
But I've sent you a postcard from the edge
